Popis: |
A 57-year-old man presented after a fall, which resulted in acetabular and pelvic fractures. He underwent fracture fixation, which was complicated by iliac vein occlusion, leading to phlegmasia cerulea dolens. He underwent lower extremity surgical venous thrombectomy, contralateral iliac vein stent placement, and modified Palma procedure with an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene venous crossover bypass and arteriovenous fistula creation. His postoperative course was unremarkable and he regained full function of the extremity without significant stasis complications. The bypass and stent remain patent 3 years postoperatively. Although iliac vein injury during acetabular fracture repair is rare, prompt recognition and intervention prevent limb loss. |
